Review / Comments ::

While there are only 4 tracks on this album it comprises an hour and seventeen minutes worth of interesting acoustic tracks. This ambient music is improvisational or "Stream of Consciousness" in nature. It is, therefore, different than anything I have reviewed here before.

Chris Brown has skillfully layered these notes of electric and acoustic guitar to form sonic soundscapes which seem to flow around the listener's mind.

This album should appeal to those whose taste in "New Age" tunes runs to "Space Music."  While it might not appeal to every taste, I did find it strangely soothing. With the volume low, I used it for massage therapy and found it totally appropriate. For those who need "white noise" to drift off to sleep this album might be a godsend. Slip this CD in and let the random notes sweep you away to the land of dreams.
